I personally can't wear those skirts that way as they accentuate everything about my bod that I'm not comfortable with. But if I could, I would! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467891 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 22:42:14 +0000 Kari 1467891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I totally wear colors with mine. I like purple and emerald green. I have an emerald asymmetrical-hemmed woven/knit blend top that I can't wait to wear with this shirt. Chambray is nice, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467890 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 22:42:04 +0000 Suz 1467890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wear mine with linen tees quite a lot. Also with linen sweaters. A few examples below.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467836 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 21:09:19 +0000 Aida 1467836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for asking this Kelly! I also bought one for fall, and only wore it once or twice; it does seem like a warmer weather piece for me and I haven't had many ideas for it yet. I bought the regular instead of the petite so it's too long and I'm pretty sure must always be worn with heels :\ Diana, I love all the photos you shared! Particularly liking the one with the big drapey tee. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467776 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 19:56:05 +0000 Thistle 1467776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would go for it!&nbsp; I like both the black and white idea, but especially a bright pop of color. Maybe citron </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467763 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 19:39:41 +0000 rabbit 1467763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm looking for a boxy opaque&nbsp;white cotton top/tee to wear with midi skirts (including tube skirts) &nbsp;something that is 'cropped' but not short enough to show skin, because I like how it works with the high waist of the skirt. &nbsp;I haven't yet figured out about the sleeves though -- as boxy sleeves don't always work as well to my eye unless one has narrow shoulders. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467757 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 19:29:45 +0000 texstyle 1467757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it would be great - love the examples so far. Green, bright yellow and other colors could also be fun with the black and white stripe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467674 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 16:00:46 +0000 Diana 1467674@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also, these are not linen tops but if you wanted more inspiration for things to wear with the striped skirt... I know you have mesh handknit/crochet tops like mine in #1, and the big drapey tee in #2 is also fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467669 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 15:56:44 +0000 lyn67 1467669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a similar striped tube, and wear it mostly in summer&nbsp;with a black&nbsp;&nbsp;mix media short sleeve top (front is wowen silky sateen, back is regular tee fabric).I find these combo on the smarter side of the tube outfits. I also have this top in coral/orange and sometimes they also work. A fluid linen tee is a great ideea for more casual looks, but I usually have to change up type of&nbsp;fabrics between top and bottoms for achieving a look I like. Otherwise, completely agree, why having a striped maxi dress, when can do with a tube and top, too:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467668 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 15:56:34 +0000 Angie 1467668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES. Thumbs up.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467666 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 15:55:36 +0000 Meredith 1467666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely plant to sport this look. I have two striped knit skirts one really bold and one more subtle than yours. I plan to wear colored tops with both. You seem ok with color and print so I think you should try a color! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467664 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 15:52:37 +0000 kellygirl 1467664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, those are great, Diana! Thanks! I like it with the white and the red! Black would be my default but I'm trying to lighten up a bit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467663 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 15:49:13 +0000 Diana 1467663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes!&nbsp; I did this all the time last summer.&nbsp; I like the casual vibe from the linen and I think the looser, drapier fit of a linen tee is a nice contrast over the bodycon skirt.&nbsp; </p> <p>I can only find 2 pics right now but i know I also wore this skirt with my black linen tee.&nbsp;&nbsp; The polka dot tank in #2 is linen, and I layered the cropped sweater over it, so that's another option.&nbsp; </p> <p>ETA: Obviously there is grinning in the first outfit with the light top.&nbsp; It doesn't bother me.&nbsp; </p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467658 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 15:45:00 +0000 unfrumped 1467658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the proportions would work well. The main trouble I have with darker skirts or pants and the lighter summer top colors (esp. white) is the "grinning" , which I don't like. This is for untucked tops, of course. So that steers me to black or navy or a deep color ( I even have a raspberry linen T that "grins", though). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467657 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 15:41:03 +0000 kellygirl 1467657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, lisa! I've worn them with a sleeveless crossover blouse but that definitely feels too dressy for what I want for summer and the&nbsp;Uniglo tees from last summer see too casual (especially since they are looking rather worn.)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467656 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 15:38:00 +0000 Anonymous 1467656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*eagerly awaiting other replies here...I have two of these skirts also, and have to figure out what to wear them with&nbsp;</p> <p>A linen t sounds like a good pairing to keep the casual vibe going, and you could toss on a denim jacket when you needed extra coverage. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/vc-skirts-and-linen-tee#post-1467655 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 15:35:23 +0000 kellygirl 1467655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've already got a few of the VC midi tube skirts languishing in my closet and am thinking that I really don't need a casual midi dress after all. My question is whether pairing the skirt with a linen tee will work. (My cotton tees all need refreshing and read too casual for the skirts to my eye.) If you think it's worth a try, would you opt for a color (like the bright orange)or stick with black/white with the striped skirt?&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks in advance!</p> <p> </p>
